Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement of a bail arm reversing device for a spinning reel for fishing.

Conventionally, the bail arm is reversed to the fishing line release position by using the hand that is not gripping the fishing rod, but recently this reversing operation has been performed by operating the operating lever with the index finger of the hand that is gripping the fishing rod. In some cases, it is reversed.

However, as seen in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication Nos. 56-157971, the control lever is formed so as to rotate in the horizontal direction, but it has a drawback that it is extremely difficult to operate it with the index finger of the hand that is gripping the fishing rod.

It is also known from Japanese Utility Model Publication Nos. 49-19186 to pull the operating lever upward toward the fishing rod to make it smoother and easier to operate with the index finger gripping the fishing rod.
Because the bail arm mounting arm has a built-in gear mechanism that operates the operating lever, the bail arm mounting arm becomes large, which disrupts the rotational balance of the rotor, and the number of parts during manufacturing and assembly increases, making the configuration extremely complicated. It has not yet been put into practical use.

The present invention is an attempt to improve these deficiencies, and the bail arm, which is pivotally supported between a pair of bail arm attachment arms, is energized and distributed to a fishing line winding position and a fishing line releasing position by the action of a spring. In a fishing reel, an arm lever of a bail arm is pivotally attached to the upper surface of one bail arm attachment arm, and an engaging portion is formed at a position away from the shaft attachment portion of the arm lever, and the end portion of the bail arm attachment arm is provided with an engaging portion. The gist of the fishing rod is that an operating lever is pivotally attached to the fishing rod side so as to be freely towable, and an operating protrusion provided on the operating lever is directly engaged with the engaging portion.

To explain the embodiment of the present invention with reference to the drawings, bail arm mounting arms 2 and 3 are integrally provided on both sides of the rotor 1 of the spinning reel, and the other end is mounted on the tip of the bail arm mounting arm 2. An arm lever 5 of a bail arm 4 that is pivotally supported on the arm 3 is rotatably attached to a shaft 6, and the arm lever 5 is held in place by a dead point spring 7 provided in the bail arm mounting arm 2. The fishing line winding position and the fishing line releasing position are divided and energized based on the dead point.

Further, an operating lever 8 is rotatably attached to the upper side of the arm lever shaft attachment portion of the bail arm attachment arm 2 by a shaft 9, and the lower side of the shaft attachment portion of the operation lever 8. The operating protrusion 11 formed protrudingly engages with an engagement notch 12 provided on the peripheral edge of the arm lever 5, and when the operating lever 8 is pulled and rotated toward the fishing rod side, the operating protrusion 11 engages with the engaging notch 12 provided on the peripheral edge of the arm lever 5.
It is configured such that it can be rotated until it exceeds the dead point of the dead point spring 7. In addition, 13 in the figure is a cover plate of the bail arm attachment arm 2.

Since the embodiment of the present invention is constructed as described above, when the bail arm 4 is to be reversed from the fishing line winding position to the fishing line releasing position, the operating lever 8 is moved from the fishing rod 10.
When the index finger of the hand holding the lever is pulled upward and rotated, the operating protrusion 11 of the operating lever 8 engages with the engagement notch 12 of the arm lever 5 and rotates it until it passes the dead center of the dead point spring 7. Moving arm lever 5
The bail arm 4 from the fishing line releasing position is returned to the fishing line winding position by rotating the handle as is known in the art.

In the above embodiment, the dead point spring 7 is provided on the bail arm mounting arm 2, but it goes without saying that it may also be provided on the bail arm mounting arm 3.

The present invention is a fishing reel in which the bail arm is divided into a fishing line winding position and a fishing line release position and energized by a spring action, and the bail arm is reversed to the fishing line release position by pulling and rotating the control lever in the direction of the fishing rod. As a result, the reversing operation can be performed smoothly and easily with a natural pulling motion of the index finger of the hand gripping the fishing rod.

In addition, in the present invention, the operating protrusion provided on the operating lever engages with the engaging portion provided at a position away from the shaft attachment portion of the arm lever to directly rotate the arm lever, so there are fewer parts to assemble. The operating lever can also be made smaller, so unnecessary inertia force does not increase when the rotor rotates, and manufacturing and assembly are easy.It is an excellent feature and practical product that allows the structure to be simplified while maintaining good operability. have sex.
